Inorder to help ease the workload for our primary mirror network, the source rpms are not kept in the same tree as the binary packages. If you need the source packages used to build CentOS, you can find them in our vault vault.centos.org.

CentOS would not be possible without the support of our sponsors. We would like to thank the following product/service for being a CentOS sponsor. If you value our work, please consider becoming a sponsor!


This is the Official CentOS 8 arm64 HVM image that has been built with a minimal profile, suiteable for use in HVM instance types only. The image contains just enough packages to run within AWS, bring up an SSH Server and allow users to login. Please note that this is the default CentOS-8 image that we recommend everyone uses. It contains packages that are updated at points in time to include critical security updates.


As I'd mentioned previously, the fine folks of Applied Micro were kind enough to give us an X-C1 development box to see if it was feasible to build and run CentOS Linux 7. My first attempt through, I realized I hadn't been taking decent notes, so I scrapped most of the package work and started over. This time I took a few more notes, and hopefully I've documented some things that will help everyone. If you're interested in discussing or joining the ARMv8 process, feel free to join our ARM development mailing list, or find me on Freenode's irc network in #centos-devel (nick: Evolution ).


My plan for the X-C1 box was to install Fedora, and use mock to get a decent buildroot in order. Because the X-C1 box came with a uboot based image by default, I had to replace it with uefi first. The directions for doing that can be found on Fedora's aarch64 wiki page. Once uboot was successfully replaced with UEFI, I installed Fedora 21 and mock. I chose F21 largely because there I couldn't find a Fedora 19 image to work from, but there are Fedora 19 packages available to help bootstrap a C7 mock chroot, which is really what I was after. I copied this repository to a local system both to not hammer the remote machine, and to reduce the latency.


While I worked on getting the roughly 150 packages needed for a basic mock buildroot built, I kept running into a recurring problem with failed tests for elfutils. Part of the elfutils test suite tests coredumps and it seems that the buildhost's systemd-coredump utility was stealing them. After some time digging around with this, I ended up with the following commands:


Initially I attempted to work out a build order that would allow me to build from the ground up, but I quickly realized this was foolish. When starting from the bottom like this, everything has a build dependency on something else. Instead I chose to work toward a clean mock init first, and then work up from that point. Since I only have one board to build against, I'm currently abusing bash and cycling things through mock directly. The idea of using koji or plague seemed a bit overkill with just one build host doing the work. Once everything has been built (or thrown out of the build) against the F19 repository, it will be time to do the build again against itself to ensure that everything is properly linked and self-hosting.


It's worth noting that some of the packages in the F19 repository are actually tagged as F20 and are newer than what exists in CentOS Linux 7. I found it necessary to exclude these newer versions, and often to exclude other packages as the build has progressed. While not an exhaustive list, examples are:


I mentioned that a few packages have been ejected from the build outright. Some of these are because the build dependencies either aren't, or can't be met. The prime example of this is ADA support, which requires the same cross-compiled (or otherwise bootstrapped) ADA version to build (yay for circular dependencies). Since nothing appears to explicitly depend on the ADA packages like libgnat, for now I've removed them. Down the road, if I'm able to properly add support I will certainly revisit this decision.


There are a few packages from CentOS Linux 7 that I just won't be able to use. The primary issue is the kernel. The 3.10 kernel just doesn't have the support for aarch64 that's needed, so my current plan is to target 3.19 as the kernel to ship for aarch64. This is still speculation, as I've been procrastinating on actually building it. I imagine that will happen for the next blog post update ?


The other problematic package is anaconda. I'm unsure if I can patch the version in 7 to support aarch64, or if I'll need to 'forward-port' and use a more recent version from fedora to handle the installation. If anyone from the community has insights or suggestions for this, please speak up.


"The official Linux architecture name for ARMv8 is aarch64. However both terms seem to be in circulation and we use them to imply the same thing." Something afaics went wrong in that area:

* ARM calls the architecture ARMv8

* the ARMv8 architecture understands the Aarch64 instruction set (but it also has a AArch32 mode)

* in the Linux kernel it's called ARM64


At this point, it looks as if Aarch64 is the build target for almost all of ARMv8 support. Hence the inter-replaceable ( even though it might be best to perhaps stick with just Aarch64 for the sake of clarity and uniformity ).


Thanks so much , this image (Centos-7-lite-demo-aarch64-bpi-w2-sd-emmc 2019-12-2) work fine for meinclude netfilter and bridge interfacebut I have problem with 2nd interface , only eth0 work on it . how Can I enable 2nd enternet ?ifup eth1 up and ifconfig eth1 up not working .awaiting for your response


This must be drivers for external PHY chip or whatever, that are not working in this new kenel.both interfaces worked on kernel 4.4 in 2018 but then HDMI was bugged (black or green screen only) and there was no BSP released yet.


where can we get Centos Image with kernel 4.4?I don;t need HDMI as out put , serial console is enough for me

But I need Bridge and netfilter moduele on Centos too ,P.S : bpi-team can you upload centos image with kernel 4.4 that support netfilter and bridge ?I want to use this board ad 4G routermy 4G module work fine as /dev/ttyUSB2 interface but


another question :i would like to enable GPIO pings also enable i2c pins for LCD display , but kernel not supported ,how can you help me to enable i2c protocl on this centos image ?i want to use oled 128*32 blue LCD for status of my routerboard


I do join the [omid1979] concerns. The whole sens is lost of building new images if both ethX ports are not brought up.I saw a repository, which forked from the 4.4 kernel and claims having fixed the 2nd ethernet driver : GitHub ShipeiXu/BPI-W2-bspSupports Banana Pi BPI-W2 (RTD1296) (Kernel 4.9.119) - ShipeiXu/BPI-W2-bsp


Vespa artifacts like RPMs and container images are currently only released for the x86_64 CPU architecture. This is what we use internally at Yahoo and our dedication to delivering battle proven versions to the public causes this to be the architecture of choice. With the emerging interest in the ARM64 CPU architecture that powers both the AWS Graviton EC2 instances and the Apple M1 MacBooks, we have decided to make a preview for Vespa on this architecture.


When a version of Vespa has achieved a high confidence within Yahoo we release this version to the public. High confidence means that it has passed all system tests, performance tests and been running in production for 150 different applications. We publish Java artifacts to Maven Central, RPMs to Fedora Copr and container images to Docker Hub. Vespa is released up to 4 times per week depending on the mentioned confidence measure. The ARM64 preview will be released at the same cadence.


The RPMs are available from Fedora Copr. This is the same location that the x86_64 architecture RPMs are available, but there is a difference. We have changed the OS we build for to CentOS Stream 8. To install the ARM64 preview of Vespa on an CentOS Stream 8 OS, execute the following:


We also publish container images of the ARM64 preview.As with the RPMs these are also based on CentOS Stream 8.The images are published to theGitHub Container Registry,and the latest image can be obtained by pulling ghcr.io/vespa-engine/vespa-arm64-preview.


If you would like to test the ARM64 preview, the easiest way is to use Docker or Podman on a ARM64 based machine. The Vespa Quick Start Guidecan be followed as described except for the container startup in step 4. There you will have to swap the regular vespaengine/vespa image with the ARM64 preview so this step becomes:


Vespa on ARM64 is published as a preview for the community to be able to test on this architecture.Help and support will be provided as a best effort through the GitHub Issuesand on the Vespa Slack.The timeline for a production ready release on the ARM64 architecture is not set yet.


No cross-compilation: To build AArch64 or x86_64 images, you must run OSBuild on the respective systems. Some options for AArch64 hosting include Raspberry Pi 4 or qemu on Linux or macOS. For more information, see AutoSD system running on a Raspberry Pi 4 or AutoSD system running on qemu.


A subscribed RHEL system: To build RHEL images, you must have access to a subscribed RHEL system to access to the entitlements. RHEL images can only be built on subscribed RHEL systems.


The Automotive SIG maintains a container image that you can use to build Automotive images for containerized enviroments.The image is maintained in thequay.io/centos-sig-automotive/automotive-osbuild repo.


This example command applies the options and resolves the package names against the repositories used to produce a JSON manifest with fully resolved versions of all packages. This JSON file is fully self contained and produces reproducible builds.


These options are passed to osbuild-mpp as separate -D flags. Each of these options are individually processed as JSON input, and therefore quotes must be escaped or nested correctly at the command line, for example:
